~~May Giveaway Day~~My First Giveaway!

This is my very first giveaway and I am pleased to offer two of my handmade projects to one lucky person. You have four opportunities to win this lovely wool felt pin/brooch and a wool felt pincushion.

This pin is a deep rosy pink flower pin with green leaves made from recycled sweater felted wool, white vintage buttons as the center. Measures 3" in diameter without leaves. Here it is pictured pinned to a black felted handbag, but it would also look good on a suit or a sweater or a coat.

And now for the cool pincushion! Makes a great addition to your sewing room or would be great to give as a gift to your sewing/crafting friends and family members.

Spring green and cornflower blue (not sure why but these photos don't reflect the true beautiful cornflower blue), this wool felt pincushion is made from recycled wool felted sweaters. Cherry on top is made from wool roving, wet felted. The pincushion measures approximately 3.75 inches tall by 3.5 inches wide.

Here's how to win:

1. Enter by going to my etsy shop WoolenWondersbyEllen and enter a blog comment to tell me which was your favorite item.

3. Become a follower of my blog and enter a comment to tell me that you are now a follower.

4. An additional blog comment telling me which is your favorite flower earns you one more chance to win!

That's four chances to win!

I will put each entry into a hat (or a bowl or maybe a paper bag or well, you get the idea!) and have my 2 year old niece Elena draw the lucky winner! That is unless I can figure out how to use an online random drawing process!

You can leave comments until May 20 at 9 pm CST and I will announce and contact the winners Thursday night.

The pincushion caught my eye because I have been wanting one of those--the ones in the store are so soft and yet hard at the same time---maybe I'm crazy to think that!!! But you know what I mean, I hope! Yours is so pretty!

Your pin and pin cushion are gorgeous - the pin would look so nice on a black jacket! My favorite flower is hard to pick - I love dandelions because those are the flowers my children give to me. I love lupines as the let me know that summer is on it's way and I love roses for not only their scent but for their varied beauty. I just love flowers!!

Congratulations! You were randomly selected to be the Blog Hopper of the Week for this week's Tuesday Tag-Along blog hop at Twee Poppets! Your blog will be placed in the desirable second slot of the TTA linky. You do not need to do anything else to claim your great position - but feel free to let me know when you have posted your TTA blog post, so I can swap in the link. Thanks for tagging along!
